Meet Palmer! This sweet, 3 year old, 11lbs Shih Tzu girl is ready for her first home! Palmer came to us from a large scale breeder. Most of her life was spent in a kennel with multiple other dogs. Despite that she is the sweetest girl!! Palmer can still be skittish in new situations, but warms up quickly! Once she is comfortable with you she loves affection and being the center of attention. She is the perfect princess lap dog! This girl also loves exploring the backyard and running around. She hasn’t had much leash experience so a fenced in yard is best for her. She does well with other dogs and cats! She would also be fine as a solo pup! Small children are a little overwhelming for Palmer, but she does great with older kids and adults! Palmer is spayed, vaccinated, HW negative and had a recent dental cleaning! She is also crate trained and doing well on house breaking!

Mama Joan and her babies got off to a rough start. This family was passed through a couple of homes before they were surrendered to Rico with Parvo. They were all treated, and they all recovered!Joan weighs 18 lbs and her estimated age is about 3 years old. Joan is crate-trained, gets along with the foster's resident dogs and seems to have been loved by someone at one time. She would love her own human to snuggle with on the couch and live her best life! Joan is especially fond of women. Joan LOVES her puppies and was the perfect protective Mama as she was passed through homes and treated at vets. Joan has attached herself to her foster mom so we know that she can form meaningful attachments with people. Joan is very friendly and just wants to be near her people.When Joan was placed on a trial adoption, it became evident that she was extremely attached to her puppies and would not do well separated from all of them. Therefore, Rico would prefer for Joan to be adopted together with her daughter, Sylvia.Sylvia is tiny (8.5 lbs.), and very agile. She has made progress trusting humans; however, she still has a way to go. Sylvia initially squirmed away from her fosters as far as she could go and would not take food from their hands. Now she checks each finger for a treat, curls up next to her fosters to sleep on the couch, plays with her fosters, and lets her fosters rub her belly or scratch her back. Sylvia is not a fan of being picked up, but she will tolerate it since she knows a treat will follow. Her date of birth is 12.7.24.Both Joan and Sylvia are making great progress at potty training with scheduled potty times outside and a pocketful of treats. Both dogs make eye contact with their foster mom to make sure she is watching while they do their business and then run to her for a treat after.A fence is a must for these pups. They are not comfortable going potty while on leash.These pups would be the perfect addition to the right home. Until then, her foster parents will love them to pieces. You can apply to meet Joan and her daughter Sylvia at ricopetrecovery.org.

Sylvia (brindle pug mix) is hanging with her fosters while she waits for the perfect home that will meet her where she is at. Sylvia, her Mama, and siblings got off to a rough start. This family was passed through a couple of homes before they were surrendered to Rico with Parvo. Sylvia was the only pup not diagnosed with Parvo, but she was treated anyway since it was just a matter of time before she also would have parvo.Sylvia is tiny (8.5 lbs.), and very agile. She has made progress trusting humans; however, she still has a way to go. Sylvia initially squirmed away from her fosters as far as she could go and would not take food from their hands. Now she checks each finger for a treat, curls up next to her fosters to sleep on the couch, plays with her fosters, and lets her fosters rub her belly or scratch her back. Sylvia is not a fan of being picked up, but she will tolerate it since she knows a treat will follow. Her date of birth is 12.7.24.It would probably be best for Sylvia to be adopted with her Mama (Joan). Joan weighs in at 18 lbs and is especially fond of women. Joan LOVES her puppies and was the perfect protective Mama as she was passed through homes and treated at vets. Joan has attached herself to her foster mom so we know that she can form meaningful attachments with people. Joan's estimated age is about 3 years old. Both dogs are making great progress at potty training with scheduled potty times outside and a pocketful of treats. Both dogs make eye contact with their foster mom to make sure she is watching while they do their business and then run to her for a treat after.A fence is a must for these pups. A trial adoption for Joan taught her foster parents that she was too busy watching out for other people or animals to relax and potty while on leash. These pups would be the perfect addition to the right home. Until then, her foster parents will love them to pieces. You can apply to meet Sylvia and her mama, Joan at ricopetrecovery.org.

DewyMaleAge: 12 yearsWeight: 15 lbsBreed: Lhasa Apso Hi! I’m Dewy. I am a sweet and loving guy who is good with other dogs and even cats. I do best in a calm and quiet home, as loud noises and too much activity make me nervous. Because of this, I’d prefer a home with older children who understand that I need gentle care. I’m working hard my house training, am leash-trained, and crate-trained, but I do need to be crated when left alone—it’s my safe space where I can relax. One of my favorite things is spending time outside, sniffing around and taking in all the smells at my own leisurely pace. I also love meeting new four-legged friends—my tail wags like crazy whenever I see them! I enjoy watching other dogs play with toys, though I haven’t quite figured out how to join in yet. Maybe one day! I also appreciate my gentle brushing sessions—they make me feel fancy, and I think I look pretty good afterward too! While I may be a little shy at first, I promise I’m as sweet and loving as they come. I’m still learning the ropes of living in a home, but I’ve come a long way and am discovering how wonderful a cozy bed and a warm spot by the heater can be. I’m also thriving on a schedule—it helps me feel safe and secure. I have Lyme Disease, but I’m on medication and doing well. I’ve had a rough life, but I’m finally getting to experience what it means to be loved and cared for. I’m still opening up, but I know that with the right person, I’ll continue to blossom. If you’re looking for a gentle, quiet companion to spoil with love, patience, and warm naps, I just might be the perfect match for you! I will also have to be neutered and have an appointment set for early April. If you are interested in meeting Dewy apply to adopt him at www.causeforcanines.org Adoption fee: $195 Must be an Ohio resident & 23 or older. Children must be 10 or older. ##2319424##

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Quinn’s adoption donation is $475 and she is being fostered in Central Ohio. She has been spayed, microchipped, received her rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza and Bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworms and started on prevention, as well as flea prevention. She has also had a dental cleaning. Meet Quinn – Your Future Snuggle Buddy! With her soulful eyes and heart full of love, Quinn is a typical shih tzu who’s ready to find her forever person. This little sweetheart is a total cuddlebug who wants nothing more than to be by your side—whether you're watching TV, going for a walk, or sneaking her a bite of your snack (yes, she's always down to share your meal!). Quinn lives for love and affection. She’s happiest being held, doted on, and included in everything you do. She's playful in a gentle, quirky way—she adores toys (especially tearing them apart!) and will adorably stand on her back legs to paw at you when she wants attention. Trust us, it’s impossible to resist. She’s low energy, content to snooze the day away between short walks and cuddle sessions. While she’s not super into other dogs, she coexists peacefully with them and is also good with cats. Older, calm kids would likely be a good match too. That said, Quinn’s journey hasn’t been easy—she’s a puppy mill survivor, so she’s still learning to trust. Strangers make her nervous at first, and she’s not a fan of crates. But with patience, love, and a gentle hand, she blossoms into a loyal, loving companion who will follow you anywhere. Her ideal home? Quiet, calm, and filled with love. She’d do best with someone who’s home often, enjoys daily walks, and can help her continue to build confidence. She has dry eye and will need daily eye drops (she’s a bit squirmy about it—but we’re working on it!). Potty training is a work in progress; she uses puppy pads but sometimes has accidents if left unsupervised. A patient adopter who can support her routine will help her thrive. Quinn may have had a rough start, but she has so much love to give. If you're looking for a sweet, silly, and devoted little shadow who just wants to be loved—Quinn is your girl.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.PLEASE NOTE: If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances.

Freddie can't wait to find his forever home, will you be it? Freddie does get anxiety when riding in a car or being left alone at home without other dogs or people. He is fine as long as others are around though. Freddie's potty habits are very good. He let's you know when he has to go out. He is a very sweet dog and is friendly to all.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Timmy's adoption donation is $500 and he is being fostered in Central Ohio. He has been neutered, microchipped, and is fully vaccinated—including rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza, and Bordetella. He has tested negative for heartworms and is on monthly heartworm and flea prevention. Timmy has also had a dental cleaning to ensure his smile is as healthy as his spirit. Meet Timmy – A Little Dog with a Big Heart and an Even Bigger Spirit At just two and a half years old, Timmy has already shown the kind of resilience and joy that can light up a home. This sweet, twenty-pound Shih Tzu may be sight-impaired, but don’t let that fool you—he’s full of life, love, and plenty of tail wags. Timmy’s journey hasn’t been easy. He landed in a Tennessee shelter when his family could no longer care for him, but thanks to a series of kind-hearted rescuers, he made his way to safety, had his damaged eyes removed, and is now living his best life in foster care while he waits for his forever home. Despite his vision loss, Timmy has adapted beautifully. He navigates his world with a little patience, a lot of sniffing, and a great sense of hearing. He walks well on a leash, adores chewy and squeaky toys, and loves playtime with other small dogs. He also enjoys car rides, cuddles, and being the ultimate lap dog. This boy thrives on companionship and would love a home where someone is around often to engage him, walk with him, and share lots of love. He’s making fantastic progress with housetraining and does best with a consistent routine. While we’re not sure how he does with cats or young kids, he gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Timmy is fully vetted—neutered, microchipped, up to date on all his vaccines, and on heartworm and flea prevention. He’s healthy, happy, and ready to share his boundless affection with a family of his own. If you’re looking for a playful, affectionate companion who will show you how beautiful life can be—one step, one snuggle at a time—Timmy might just be your perfect match.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.PLEASE NOTE: If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances.

He has been neutered, microchipped, received his rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza and Bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworms and started on prevention, as well as flea prevention. He has also had a dental cleaning. Although Hayes came into rescue from a puppy mill with the typical behaviors, today, he is a happy, playful guy, plays with toys, looks out the windows, the patio and the screened porch, and likes to be chased. In fact, you might just think he is a bit shy. He will carry his toys around with him, and so he will help with the laundry if you drop anything on the floor! He sits to allow his harness and leash to be put on. He comes when you call him. He loves dinner time and treats (no calling is necessary - he knows where to go!) and he would give his favorite stuffie for another dog to play with. He has turned into quite the power walker, and enjoys going, setting a brisk pace, and will do his business. He travels calmly and relaxed in the car. Housetraining is most successful when he is kept on a schedule. He will need a fenced yard. He also may need medicated baths to limit yeast growth. The perfect home for Hayes will have patient humans, and a companion dog who is easy-going, will take him on walks, and make sure he has lots of toys. He has come so far. Does your pack have room for this little guy? He sure hopes so!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.PLEASE NOTE: If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Chancey's adoption donation is $350 and he is being fostered in Mansfield, Ohio. Chancey has received top-notch veterinary care: he’s neutered, microchipped, up to date on rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza, and Bordetella vaccines, heartworm negative and on prevention, as well as flea prevention. He’s also had a dental cleaning with a few extractions and has recovered beautifully—now he's ready to flash that sweet senior smile your way! Meet Chancey – A Distinguished Gentleman Looking for Love Chancey is the very definition of a gentle soul. This handsome senior came into rescue through no fault of his own, and while life may have shifted, his loving heart and charming personality shine brighter than ever. At this stage in life, Chancey knows what he likes: porch sitting, car rides, tasty treats (he's a fan of fruits and veggies!), and most of all—being close to his person. He’s a true cuddle connoisseur who prefers a cozy bed (yours, if you don’t mind sharing), a warm lap, and a quiet home where he can enjoy the good life at a slower pace. Chancey does well with house training when kept on a schedule and is learning to communicate his needs—sometimes with a little extra volume! Chancey believes in speaking his mind—his sassy commentary adds to his charm, but it does make him better suited to a home without shared walls.' He’s currently living with another low-energy dog, though he’d also be perfectly content as the center of your world. He’s on medication to keep his arthritis pain managed, but stairs can be tricky for him—so a ranch-style home or one with minimal steps would be perfect. Chancey may have a few gray hairs, but he’s still got so much love to give. He’s looking for a calm, loving home (without young children) where he can bask in attention, enjoy the occasional healthy snack, and soak up every moment of his golden years. Looking for a loyal companion with a heart of gold and a big personality? Chancey is ready to be your devoted best friend.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.PLEASE NOTE: If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Milo’s adoption donation is $600 and he is being fostered in Central Ohio. He has been neutered, microchipped, received his rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza and Bordetella vaccines, started on heart prevention, as well as flea/tick prevention. Milo would be best in a home with a companion dog of similar size/energy. Meet Milo – The Sweetest Little Explorer! Say hello to Milo, a bundle of joy with a heart full of love and a spirit that lights up every room! This adorable little pup may be blind, but don’t let that fool you—he’s confident, playful, and ready to take on the world with you by his side. Milo is the definition of a social butterfly—he adores other dogs, gets along great with cats, and has been sweet and gentle with kids over 8. His favorite things in life? Chew toys, romping around at doggy daycare, going for walks, and curling up for a good snuggle with his humans and furry friends. His foster sibling, Stevie, is his cuddle buddy, and he’d love a home with a canine friend to share adventures (and naps)! He has a mid-to-high energy level and would thrive in a home that understands his special needs and celebrates his abilities. While a fenced yard would be a bonus, it’s not required—he just needs a safe space and a loving hand to guide him. Milo is still working on his house training (he spins in fast circles when he needs to go out), and he's making great progress! He’s not a fan of having his face hair brushed, but with all the love he gives, that’s a small price to pay for such a delightful companion. His eating routine is simple—breakfast at 7 am, dinner at 7 pm, and of course, some treats in between to keep that tail wagging! Milo is looking for a forever family who will embrace his unique perspective and help him navigate life with patience, care, and lots of cuddles. If you’re ready to fall head over heels, Milo is ready to be your little shadow and best friend. Let Milo’s next big adventure begin—with you!

If you go to the individual webpage of our dogs , you will be able to get more information each dog. Visual breed identification in dogs can be unreliable so, in many cases, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label. Our Adoption Process The adoption process has several steps involved. Please review prior to submitting an application. Our adoption process is detailed here: http://www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/info/adoption Our volunteers work very diligently to process each application and we try to ensure that we are making the best match possible for each dog. We do not schedule meetings with dogs until an application has been approved. It can take up to a few weeks to process an application or as little time as a few days, from the time you submit an application, please be prepared to adopt as we cannot hold dogs. Special Requirements Some dogs may have special requirements (for example, medications, a fence) -- if you apply for a dog, please be sure to read over the biography completely to see if there are any special needs and if you're home would be suitable. If we indicate on the dog's biography that a fence is required, this means your home must have a physical fence. Other dogs may require a "strong vet reference" which indicates that we are looking for a home that has a documented history of veterinary care with previous pets. The first step in our process is to submit an online adoption application at www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/forms. The application MUST include the personal references and veterinary, grooming, and landlord references (if applicable) and their respective contact information. If you do not include the references and the contact information, your application will be delayed as it CANNOT be processed. Once the references have been successfully completed, a home visit is then scheduled when a rescue representative can meet all members of the family or residents of the home. No application is approved prior to the home visit being done. At that point, the Directors will discuss any and all applications on a foster dog and make a selection--in many cases, there are multiple applications for each dog, so please be understanding that our only priority is the successful placement of each of our foster dogs. Out of State Adoptions We do adopt out of state to outstanding applicants, however, our process requires a home visit, so out of state adoptions can take longer. We do not ship our dogs, adopters should be prepared to pick up the dog in Central Ohio. April 24, 2025, 4:30 pm
